This bell made of bronze used during Buddhist ceremonies. The handle and the body of the bell are cast separately and are attached to each other by soldering. Because of the face on the handle, the five-ponged vajra at the end of the handle and the garland on the body only with lotuses, this is Tathaghata votive bell.
